Auto does not mean loose typing. It still has a type, you just don't have to write it but it will be there and will be enforced by the compiler.

There are plenty of cargo planes which you can easily drive a car into.
If the Swedish charges against him were legitimate he could.
He has not ben charged as far as I know, there's only allegations. What's not legitimate about that?
In C++ how would you write the most elegant solution that prints numbers from 1 to 100, replacing any number divisible by three with the word "fizz", and any number divisible by five with the word "buzz"?
Apart from work, do you have any personal programming projects going on? Which type of programming do you like most and is there a particular project that you would like to implement?
C# pioneered lambda's.

Apple recently introduced a language they call Swift or Objective-C without the C. It is technically a completely different language from Objective-C though. When C++ started out it had the major benefit that it was (mostly) compatible with C which at the time was immensely popular, making it trivial to mix new C++ code with existing C code. Today C is still a popular language but not as widely used as it once was. Assuming that C++ could drop C compatibility, how would you take that opportunity to improve C++?
Not sure why this is considered FUD. The thing about any DVCS is that once it is in the repo it stays in the repo.
That's true for non-DVCS too. If it's out, it's out. Doesn't matter if you distributed tarballs or Visual SourceSafe. If it's out, it out.
You have to be very careful about what is put out there in public. Given that this is git, though, I am not sure why the company does not use two repos. A private one for internal development, and a public one which has the merges from the private repo once a point in the graph clears any potential legal issues. This feature is one of the great strengths about git and github.
Well, it's going to have a social impact. There won't be much collaboration when all the company does publicly is basically code dumps.
It will keep the lawyers happy, but expect to receive less attention or even be completely ignored if your project is very small. Lots of people will simply not sign CLAs.
Yep, but nothing stops anyone else from having you accept it before you can install it.
Do people in America really support this?
Some do, some don't.
Are you aware of the path you are on?
Yep.
Are you really ignorant of where this leads to?
Some are, some are not.
Are you all in agreement?
Nope.
You're always free to not buy locked phones.
Then the US will simply have to go to war if they want the data.
Yes they can do this. The bigger issue is if they can enforce this, which they can't.
Then someone would have to physically get to Europe and retrieve the data.
